Right. Like I said, I already have an LED lamp from B&M, and it's not good enough -- but it's one of the lower-end models (25 lux). My question is whether there's any point in buying one of the higher-end B&M lights (say, the IQ-X, rated at 100 lux), or whether the limited current output from the vintage hub simply won't do the job.
